Intro

The BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) subsystem provides functions to access BIA functionality.

Note:

Since TsBia is a member of the device class, it cannot be used independently without an active Teslasuit device.

Class TsBia

Handles BIA (Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis) data processing and streaming.
This class manages the interaction with BIA sensors, including data streaming configuration, starting/stopping streaming, and retrieving BIA data.

Class methods:

---

start_streaming(self)

Start the streaming of BIA data.

---

stop_streaming(self)

Stop the streaming of BIA data.

---

get_data_on_ready(self)

Blocks execution until BIA data is ready and returns the latest data.

Returns:

• TsBiaChannels (struct): The latest BIA data.

---

set_streaming_config(self, channels, start_frequency=10000, number_of_steps=10, frequency_step=10000)

Set the streaming configuration for BIA data.

Args:

• channels (list): List of channel indexes to stream.
  
• start_frequency (int): Starting frequency for the BIA data.
  
• number_of_steps (int): Number of frequency steps.
  
• frequency_step (int): Frequency step size.

Access to the data

These code snippets and charts are just an example of how is the data flow looks like. to know more, please visit data structures page.

Access to BIA channel data
